It goes on to recommend that the player gradually resumes activity over a period of days (weeks, months, never) based on what he’s capable of doing – any limitation by symptoms means activity levels don’t progress upwards. The progression of activity would be:
  1. Complete rest until symptom-free
  2. Light aerobic exercise
  3. Sport-specific exercise
  4. Non-contact drills
  5. Full-contact drills after medical clearance
  6. Return to competition
If it was a concussion then it sounds like the Flames didn't follow these steps, and I doubt that is the case.
